My new honey filter material

After 35 years of pumping my honey crop through ladies nylon stockings, which of course added a sensual thrill to honey processing, I this year had a brilliant vision and have been using drain pipe poly filter sock. It comes in a 100 foot roll. I cut about a 26" length, knot the lower end, and clamp it to my double pipe outlet. It does not sag, run and stretch unpredictably like a nylon stocking, and seems to filter just as well. They are also reusable. Possibly this discovery will end years of embarrassment soliciting the few women in my life for their discard nylons, and sneaking around the women's department at Walmart. It will however also end decades of fantasy and voyuerism in the honey room.

Well, I only buy NEW knee high stockings. I do, however, enjoy the funny little smirk the check out girl gives me when I give her a wink that says, "I'll never tell."

Ok people...before anyone else gets their shorts in a knot (pun intended)....do I need to delete my post?
I know I have an unusual sense of humor and thought it would be a good chuckle.
To delete or not....that is the question.

Re: My new honey filter material

Old thread I realize, but I am curious to know what the minimum temperature would be to use a filtering setup like this? I like to keep the temps below 105 deg F and occasionally run some "extra raw" honey around 80 deg F.

When I got to the checkout counter the lady said, "You don't have that much hair". I just gave her the $20.00 and left her wondering why I needed 2000 bobby pins.
